The Government must focus on the real issues facing patients rather than concocting transphobic 'solutions' to problems that don't exist.

[Alanna Wurm @AlannaWurm]

Patients should already be accommodated on same-sex wards and have the right to request to be cared for by a doctor of the same gender. All too often this doesn't happen. It has nothing to do with trans people and everything to do with the decay of services under the Tories🧵

[Department of Health and Social Care @DHSCgovuk]

Updates to the NHS Constitution for England aim to put patients first.

Proposed changes include accommodating requests from patients to be treated by doctors of the same biological sex when undergoing intimate care.

[Alanna Wurm @AlannaWurm]

These proposals will do nothing to fix these issues and will serve only to further limit access to care for trans and non-binary patients, an already marginalised group with an acute need for more comprehensive and more compassionate care.

NEW: an ideological divide is emerging between young men and women in many countries around the world.

I think this one of the most important social trends unfolding today, and provides the answer to several puzzles.

In Britain, abortion is legal only as an exception to its own illegality. Abortion must be decriminalised now. @vickyfoxcroft please support.

[stellacreasy @stellacreasy]

Currently only women in Northern Ireland have protected human right to an abortion in law. I will be tabling amendment to forthcoming UK bill of rights to guarantee this for all UK women. If you want your MP to vote for it - as will be free vote- tell them! #nowforUK

Frankly horrifying that @roinnslainte spent €278k to sponsor #OperationTransformation, almost double the HSE spend on developing eating disorder services in 2019.
